Answer:

Schemes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jean Piaget was a psychologist who developed a theory about cognitive development. According to him, people go through different stages of cognitive development since birth until adolescence and the thinking becomes more logical as they move through the stages.

Piaget developed also the concept of schemes, according to him, schemes are frameworks that help us organize and store information (that can be ideas, behaviors, skills). Thanks to them we can organize similar concepts and make generalizations and mental patterns to organize them and interpret our environment in a faster way.

Therefore, schemes are organized mental patterns that represent behaviors and actions.
